meditation for peace

This came via email this morning, a movement to meditate for world peace. It offers to send daily meditations to your email address, and asks for 5 - 7 minutes meditation per day.

Worth waking five minutes earlier every morning? Five minutes less TV in the evening? Together we will make a difference.
To put the world right in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right.

--Confucius

aaah yes, we must first put our hearts right, recently I received much joy from a meeting with a Buddhist monk who taught us the basics of filling the heart with love and compassion through meditation. Each day my meditation becomes longer and my heart fuller as I search for the discipline of tolerance. with Love Ann.
